Georgia Public School District to Use “Assault” Rifles

[Jeff]

Now they are taking a step in the right direction, these would be killers may not go to a school to do a mass shooting if they know they may get shot before they can pull the trigger, or so I hope, but either way I think guns in the school to protect our children is the right way to go .





In a plan sure to be heralded as the a sign of the Apocalypse by the leftist anti-gun lobby, one Georgia school district is considering a plan to use "assault" style rifles (http://www.gainesvilletimes.com/section/6/article/89454/) to protect their schools.
No doubt many liberals in the media will use this proposal as more proof that we in the south aren’t playing with a full deck. Of course, I see things as just the opposite. Because the people of the great state of Georgia aren’t hung up on the ridiculous notion that guns cause crime, we are able to more easily understand that guns may actually be the answer to violent spree killings. Schools have long been Gun Free Zones, and it has not stopped them from being targeted by evil and insane murderers. At some point, even liberals must realize that simply designating an area as “gun free” doesn’t mean that criminals will obey.

Under the plan, a Colt 6920 M4 carbine would be placed inside a safe in the three schools. Currently, the school resource officer would be the only one to have access to the rifle.

That just seems like a dumb idea. What are the odds that an officer would have a chance to get to the safe if something does happen?

I must admit I didn't see the safe deal but as long as the resource officer is armed and the would be shooter knows there are weapons at the school I think it would make them think twice before entering to shoot, I guess they never heard a unloaded locked up gun is as good as no gun , but these people that would even want to hurt unarmed children aren't the brightest bulbs in the bunch
